Love Is Missing From Our Lives
The Dramatics Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You and me, we were meant to be
And I, I see it
You and me, we were meant to love and (and)
I, I believe it (I believe it)
I really do believe it
But you can't see the forest
Cauz you're looking at the trees
You don't even know that
That you love me
Don't you feel like there's something missing? (don't you feel it)
Missing in your life?
I'm missing you! (I'm missing you)
You're missing me too! (now don't cha feel it)
Love is missing from our lives...
You and me, we were meant to live
But, somehow baby
We ain't living, we really ain't living
Oh! Can't you open your heart
And for the first time really see
Baby I need you
Just as bad as you needed me
Ooh ya...
Don't you feel like there's something missing? (Don't you feel it)
Missing in your life
I'm missing you (I'm missing you, now don't cha feel it)
Love is missing from our lives...
We need a little love, in our life
Don't you feel it
So much love




We need love
I missing you too!

So True!!!!!!!

@whatsthedeal9720

This album was grossly underrated and under appreciated except for us real fans of both groups. At 66 years old it brings me to tears to know that music like this will never be done again. Life was so much better back then when artist could really sing and had something to sing about.

@ra15899550

I really enjoyed and loved both of these groups. The Mighty Dells going all the way back to the 50's and the Dramatics from the 60's. RIP all the departed souls.
